Ever wondered where you can get stylish dishes, stylish soaps, stylish flower arrangements, and even stylish cheeses, all in one swoop?

Sounds too good to be true, but it isn’t. You’ll find all these lovelies (cheese included) and more at Artichokes & Co., seated in a cool structure on 1100 East with also-stylish Lunatic Fringe. We like to swoop by Artichokes whether we’re headed to a baby shower, a birthday dinner or a bridal luncheon, so we can grab something like Lorina lemonade or a Voluspa candle. (And if we need a little hair-styling, it’s just a staircase away.)

Here’s a quick prep: You’ll see tabletops covered in everything from Papaya stationery to candy-filled paint cans; a vintage bathtub spewing with supersoft robes by Barefoot Dreams and Elizabeth W bath products; as well as shelves stocked with culinary treats like Barefoot Contessa mixes and O Olive Oils.

Some of our favorite things include four city-themed “bon voyage” mugs with European scenery decorating them, bath salts by Watermarket, and a handful of luxury PJs. We also cooed over a collection of dishes covered in bright red polka dots.

Also special? Artickokes’ flower arrangements—we especially like the ones that incorporate their namesake: unexpected and stylish artichokes.
